Docosahexaenoic Acid Reverses Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Drug Resistance ...
New Chinese cell study [1]. Docosahexaenoic Acid [DHA] is one of the two marine omega-3 fatty acids that people seem to have become bored with. Are supplements good or bad? Why do the softgels have an "off" taste? Is the oil oxidized, rancid, etc."I like to get my DHA from fish. For breakfast I

Second Prostap injection
Hi, I had my second 3 month Prostap injection 4 weeks ago and I’ve been bleeding heavily with clots since having it… it took 6 weeks for the bleeding to stop when I had the first one, then I had a few weeks of no bleeding which was lovely, I started spotting two weeks before my second was due but assumed

Loss of Bone density
I have just received a low bone density diagnosis due to the 8 months of prednisone, I suppose. I am devastated as I have followed all the recommendations for diet, pills, including alendronate, and do numerous weight bearing activities. Can bone density ever improve naturally? Or is this forever?

What is my fracture risk?
I was diagnosed with osteoporosis last November and prescribed Alendronic Acid. I was slow to begin taking it, wanting to understand the risks and benefits etc. But I wasn't told what my risk of fracture is? The report I was sent shows T scores and Z scores but not the risk of fracture.Has anyone else

Interesting discussion on supplements from ZOE
Here is a podcast or transcript of it that others may find useful in deciding what to spend their precious pennies on after an expert discusses large, long range studies. For those who have neither the time nor the brain today, it was a thumbs up to a multivitamin, vitamin D (not large doses!), omega

Alendronic Acid
I have reduced my Prednisolone to 3 ml a day, I was thinking of stopping my weekly intake of Alendronic acid, but I first of all contacted my GP. She has responded by saying that I should stay on it for five years. I have been on it for 15 months. What are your thoughts on stopping Alendronic Acid.

A bit of cheer when we need it.
A bit off topic, but I'm so chuffed at having self published my third book! I'm not bothered about sales, just a few reviews and the sense of achievement through all my dark days of bad consultations, taper/flare yoyos, etc. Stuck at 10 mgs Pred currently and still resisting MTX & Zoledronic acid

Omega 3
Hi all, hope everyone is feeling well. My husband has CLL and has been taking Ibrutinib for 3-years. I just wondered if Omega 3 is something you can take with CLL or should it be avoided? I have read a lot about it’s benefits, but not sure if it’s suitable for people with CLL. Many thanks

Possible Endometriosis?
Hi all, first post here. have been struggling with a lot of ongoing, chronic bowel, bladder and pelvic symptoms for many years, which have worsened recently after going through a particularly stressful time. My periods have usually been on the heavier side, but would always last around 7 - 8 days

Mixed feelings following first GP appointment since PMR diagnosis
Started on 20mg prednisolone mid June, four weeks later reduced to 17.5 mg for four weeks, no problems, reduced to 15mg last Friday. By Monday the pain was back and I was very breathless; when I saw GP face to face, two days ago I was told to go back to 17.5 for two weeks and then try again. I raised

Well I'll be damned!
Well, as a follow up to my post 3 weeks ago, I had my Rheumy appt. this morning. She spent ages with me. I told her all my woes, and she thoroughly examined me. I must've have yelped loudly about 20 times 😖 She went through all of my symptoms one by one and said she had come to the conclusion

Zolpidem users: a debilitating surprise awaits at 65
I took Zolpidem (a.k.a., Ambien) for 12 years. Last spring my doctor cut off my prescription without discussion. Around the same time my brother's doctor cut his prescription from 10mg to 5mg without discussion. At same time a fellow employee of my brother had her prescription cut off – without discussion

Omega 3 supplements- increased risk of cardiovascular disease?
I recently read on a Grassroots Health newsletter that recent research has shown that B vitamins don’t work well without omega 3. (I can’t be more specific than ‘don’t work well ‘and I’m not sure there was a reference - but I’ll find a screenshot. I take a B complex So I started supplementing with omega

Painkillers for nerve pain / side effects
I am a 71 yo male with PAF / exercise induced AF, which doesn’t overly affect me too much. I am fairly active and a regular cyclist. Recently I have been suffering with a trapped > irritated Femoral Nerve in my Left leg. This is quite painful at times and keeps me awake at night. I have been attending

No Alendronic Acid!
So this month's prescription for Alendronic Acid hadn't been done very -unusual for our very efficient pharmacy. Pharmacist explained to me that there is a national shortage and there just isn't any to be had -he has emailed the surgery to request the alternative ibandronate, but they haven't got
